Temperature dial stuck - Black & Decker D2030 Iron

If the temperature control dial of your Bosch Sensixx x DA30 iron has become stiff, you can try the following steps to make it easier to turn:

1. Unplug the iron and let it cool down completely.
2. Using a soft cloth or sponge, clean the dial and the surrounding area to remove any dust or debris.
3. Apply a small amount of WD-40 or silicone spray lubricant to the temperature control dial.
4. Slowly turn the dial back and forth a few times to distribute the lubricant and loosen up any dirt or debris that may have been causing the stiffness.
5. Wipe away any excess lubricant with a clean, dry cloth.
6. Plug in the iron and turn it on to make sure the temperature control dial is turning smoothly.

If the stiffness persists or the temperature control dial is still not turning smoothly, you may need to take your iron to a professional for repair or replacement of the dial.

This is not something that most people would take the time to repair. It is not cost effective and parts are not available if something is wrong with the thermostat.

If the temperature dial is not set high enough, or the thermostat is faulty and setting the cut-off temperature too low, some steam irons will fill up their steam chamber in their soleplates completely with water and stop steaming, until the temperature returns above what's needed to continously generate steam.

Not necessary To due the thermostat inside. you mus recalibrated.

God bless you

The thermostat in the iron controls the temperature of the iron. The red light indicates when the power applied to heat the iron which is set by the temperature dial on the iron. When it reaches the correct temperature the thermostat turn off the power and that is when the red light switches off.

Switch light goes on when pressed but goes off if... OR iron does not heat at all even pressing the button to turn it on continually.
Don't understand which one question you are asking
But if there is no heat at all after switching it on, it needs to go to iron heaven but be sure to cut the plug of the end, Saftey reasons at the dump. BUT if lights are coming on the iron is working. the large dial on the water filler is temperature control. Turn this around to cotton or linen.
The light will come on and off while in use, it allows you to know that the iron has cooled and is going back to your select temperature( on the large dial)

Make sure that you use water in the iron as it will aid your ironing and make it quicker. Make sure that the iron temperature dial on the water filler is at the correct temperature for the item that you are ironing.
Hope this helps

SELF CLEANINGIt is important to “Self Clean” the iron at least every two weeksto remove scale, calcium, etc. The harder the water, the more often the iron should be self cleaned.1. Set the variable steam control dial to any steam position.2. Fill the water tank up to the “MAX” level.3. Stand the iron on its heel. Plug the iron into the electrical outlet.4.Press the electronic temperature control button until you get the “MAX” temperature setting on the display panel and wait until the iron heats up and temperature setting light stops flashing.5. Turn the variable steam control dial all the way to the right to the self-cleaning position and hold the iron horizontally over the sink (Fig. 8).6. Boiling water and steam will now be ejected from the holes in the soleplate. The impurities and scale are washed away with it. 7. Move the iron back and forth as this happens.8. If there is any water left in the water tank after the iron stops steaming, just empty the remaining water in a sink following the instructions for emptying the iron. 9.Turn the variable steam control dial to the “0” position when the water tank is empty.10.Place the iron back upright on its heel to cool down before storing.

okay. thats not a bad question, i got the same iron, and i know what your're talking about. the "line" you're talking about is not a line at all, it's actually a tiny plastic indicater at the bottom of the dial. it's blue too, so you cant see it, so feel on it with your finger. =) email me if i helped.
